First, will this fee be applied to every property, regardless of whether that property has a sidewalk?

@divinemsm answered that question in a previous post; the fee applies regardless of whether or not there is a sidewalk.

["The fee is not based upon whether there is a sidewalk or not."]

..........what is actually meant by "multiplied by a value applied to the street type".  

There are different types of public streets, two of which are arterial and local. Provided the cost per front foot is the same for the same type of street, the properties on that type of street are being treated alike in terms of taxation. The fact that a house on a local road may be charged a lower rate than a house on an arterial road is immaterial for that purpose since those two houses are not alike (in terms of the type of street on which they are located). 

 

Further, certain houses are probably going to be exempt from the charge since they are not located on public streets, but on private roads (e.g., in HOAs). Again, those houses would be treated alike based on the type of street on which they are situated.
